Two appointments at Abu Dhabi's largest hotel signal intention to keep competitive edge
Abu Dhabi, UAE: Grand Millennium Al Wahda, part of the Millennium & Copthorne hotel group, is welcoming two new senior appointments to further enhance guest experience and boost guest favourability and bookings.
Marwan Mseikeh joins the hotel as Hotel Manager, working closely with General Manager Michael Sorgenfrey to ensure all hotel functions work together to deliver results, from exceptional guest experience and guest relations to back end operations. Marwan has over 15 years of experience in the hospitality industry, and has spent 10 years with Millennium & Copthorne in different positions.
A veteran of the Millennium & Copthorne group, Marwan brings to Grand Millennium Al Wahda more than four year's experience as General Manager of Kingsgate Abu Dhabi, the group's budget business hotel in downtown Abu Dhabi. With attention to detail and a nous for guest satisfaction, Marwan will be an integral part of the hotel's strategy for further success.
Joining the Grand Millennium Al Wahda team as its new Director of Sales and Marketing, Adam Harvey brings more than 13 years of hotel sales experience to the role. Adam first arrived in Abu Dhabi in 2007, and counts among his achievements the successful launch and consequent performance growth of Radisson Blu and Park Inn Abu Dhabi on Yas Island.
Michael Sorgenfrey, General Manager of Grand Millennium Al Wahda said:
"I am delighted to welcome Marwan and Adam to the team. Their undisputable experience and expertise will help us take the hotel to the next level. With our bolstered management team, we will be able to further enhance our guest experience whilst improving loyalty and repeat visits.
"With our first anniversary behind us, we are looking forward to the next 12 months which will see many exciting developments at the hotel. Abu Dhabi is an increasingly competitive marketplace for hotels, but with our commitment to service quality and continuous improvement, we are well placed to retain our loyal guests and continue to attract new business."
